Test and Numerical Simulation of the Axial Compressive Capacity of Concrete Columns Reinforced by Duplex Stainless Steel Bars

Stainless steel has the characteristics of oxidation resistance, high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, high strength, and high yield ratio. The use of stainless steel bars can extend the life of a structure, reduce later maintenance costs, and reduce the whole life cycle cost of the structure. In this paper, nine concrete columns reinforced with duplex stainless steel (S2205) (DSSRC) and nine ordinary reinforced concrete columns (ORC) were poured with the diameter of steel bars as the parameter, and axial compression tests were carried out on these eighteen concrete columns. The failure mode of the concrete columns is analyzed, and the compressive performance indexes of the two kinds of concrete columns are compared. The results show that, compared with the ORC, the cracking load of DSSRC is increased by 33%, the ultimate load is increased by 30.7%, and the deformation performance of the DSSRC is also improved significantly. On the basis of the test, the finite element model of DSSRC was established with the help of ABAQUS software, and the obtained failure law was consistent with the test; the experimental value, the calculated value, and the numerical simulation value of the axial compression capacity were in good agreement, which verified the feasibility of the test and provided a theoretical basis for practical engineering applications.
